Powerful cell wall biomass degradation enzymatic system from saprotrophic Aspergillus fumigatus

The Cell Surface
Cell wall biomass, Earth’s most abundant natural resource, holds significant potential for sustainable biofuel production. Composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, pectin, and other polymers, the plant cell wall provides essential structural support

Multimodular fused acetyl–feruloyl esterases from soil and gut Bacteroidetes improve xylanase depolymerization of recalcitrant biomass

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Plant biomass is an abundant and renewable carbon source that is recalcitrant towards both chemical and biochemical degradation. Xylan is the second most abundant polysaccharide in biomass after cellulose, and it possesses a variety of ...

Holistic Assessment of Rumen Microbiome Dynamics through Quantitative Metatranscriptomics Reveals Multifunctional Redundancy during Key Steps of Anaerobic Feed Degradation

mSystems, 2018
Ruminant livestock is a major source of the potent greenhouse gas methane. The complex rumen microbiome, consisting of bacteria, archaea, and microbial eukaryotes, facilitates anaerobic plant biomass degradation in the cow rumen, leading to methane ...

Assessing the potential of different biochars to support Miscanthus × giganteus phytoremediation in petroleum hydrocarbons-contaminated soil

Industrial Crops and Products
Soil contamination by petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) poses a persistent environmental challenge. This study evaluated the phytoremediation of Miscanthus × giganteus (M×g) in PHs-contaminated soil (0, 10, and 20 g kg−1) using a semi-controlled pot ...

Visible light-exposed lignin facilitates cellulose solubilization by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases

Nature Communications, 2023
Degradation of plant biomass, comprised of cellulose and polyaromatic lignin, is promoted by light. Here, the authors show that light promotes lignin-catalyzed generation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used by redox enzymes to degrade cellulose.
